Turn your computer into a window on the fine detail of everyday objects. This portable 10x200x digital microscope lets you inspect insects, coins, minerals, electronics and more, with adjustable LED lighting and a 2MP camera for capturing photographs and video.
Not every interesting subject fits beneath a conventional microscope. The Celestron Deluxe Handheld Digital Microscope makes it possible to bring magnification directly to an object, opening up a different approach to examining surfaces, textures and fine structures.
The compact handheld design is particularly useful for looking at objects that are awkward to position on a microscope stage. Examine the intricate printing of a postage stamp, the fine engraving on a coin, the texture of a mineral, the construction of electronic circuit boards or the surface details of insects and plants.
Instead of viewing through an eyepiece, the microscope connects to a computer via USB and displays a live magnified image on screen. Its built-in 2MP camera can capture photographs at resolutions up to 1920 1080 pixels, as well as video, allowing you to record and revisit interesting findings.
The 10x200x magnification range is particularly suited to examining surface details. Lower magnifications provide a broader view, while higher powers offer closer inspection of smaller features. The most useful magnification depends on the subject and how steadily the microscope is positioned.
Eight white LEDs surround the lens, with adjustable brightness to suit the object you’re examining. This is especially useful when moving between dark materials, reflective surfaces and specimens where excessive illumination might obscure fine textures.
Although designed for handheld use, the microscope also includes an adjustable metal stand. This provides a stable position when examining smaller objects or working at higher magnifications, where even slight movement can make the image difficult to keep in focus.
The supplied MicroCapture Pro software supports viewing, photographing and recording specimens on a compatible computer, with additional functions such as measurement when appropriately calibrated.
For natural history enthusiasts, collectors, families and anyone interested in investigating the fine detail of familiar objects, this is a practical and engaging alternative to a traditional tabletop microscope. It is backed by a two-year limited warranty.
